Telecom Shifts Security & Compliance Left with DevSecOps Continuous Compliance Automation

Summary

A global telecommunications organization brought consistency and visibility across DevOps programs, implementing RegScale’s DevSecOps Continuous Compliance Automation (CCA) platform. This increased visibility and accountability throughout the software development life cycle. It also enabled consistent application of metrics, KPIs, and runbooks to improve the overall quality and velocity of code produced.

Challenge: Scattered tools and policies create blind spots for vulnerabilities and compliance

The company faced significant challenges reconciling multiple compliance programs with their DevOps processes, obscuring visibility and hindering accountability for code quality and remediation of issues. The fragmented, manual approach cause code to be flagged as not compliant later in the development process, and slowed development of new products and initiatives.

The company needed to meet multiple regulatory requirements more efficiently and effectively, streamline response to audits, and have a scalable, standardized process across DevOps tools, to better serve their customers securely.

Solution: Integrated Policy/Compliance as Code into the CI/CD pipeline

In response to these challenges, the company took a head-on approach to transforming its DevSecOps and compliance programs. Utilizing Policy/Compliance-as-Code within their CI/CD tooling, the company was able to find compliance and vulnerability issues sooner in the software development process, and fix the issues faster, with less impact on the delivery of software. Embedding compliance into the DevSecOps pipeline enabled the company to apply consistent metrics, KPIs, and runbooks across regulatory frameworks and compliance programs. Consistency proved invaluable for providing reports and dashboards with accurate, real-time security and compliance posture, and increasing both the quality and velocity of software delivered to customers.

Result: Automated consistent application of Policy/Compliance as Code into the CI/CD pipeline

Integrating RegScale into the heart of their development and compliance processes increased security, visibility, and accountability across the organization. Providing Executive and Operational dashboards and reports gave a single, real-time view of security and compliance. Leveraging RegScale’s Policy/Compliance-as-code capabilities in their DevSecOps pipelines, the company was able to automate security and compliance enforcement, providing faster, more secure applications for their customers.
